Key clinical point: The risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease (AD) dementia is significantly higher in individuals with vs without migraine, with younger age, obesity, and chronic migraine being significant risk factors for AD dementia among individuals with migraine.
Major finding: A prior history of migraine is a significant risk factor for AD dementia (hazard ratio [HR] 1.32; 95% CI 1.30-1.35). The risk was prominently higher among individuals with vs without migraine who were younger (HR 1.58; 95% CI 1.52-1.64) and had obesity (HR 1.39; 95% CI 1.35-1.43) and among those with chronic vs episodic migraine (CM HR 1.48, 95% CI 1.44-1.52; vs EM HR 1.26, 95% CI 1.27-1.29).
Study details: This retrospective, nationwide cohort study included individuals without (n = 5,863,348) and with (n = 212,836) migraine.
Disclosures: This study was supported by grants from the National Research Foundation funded by the Ministry of Education, the Technology Development Program funded by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups (Korea), and others. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
